The super.upu...a Clerk.
''Taverner" in the Boston Post.


While I was sitting In the counting room OF
merchant friend OF mine the other day, observed
an oldish man OF shabby -genteel appearance, who
came softly into the room, and after hanging up
his hat and coat In q methodical manner, and ar
ranging some papers on his desk, was soon nodding
over what took TO be the marine news in the
morning paper. he presented an odd contrast 10
the young and dapper accountants about him, and
had gazed for some time at this queer ngure, his
Toned dckey that he wore. before 1t dawned upon
me that ne must be that almost mythical
character. the superannuated clerk. On inquiry
learned that he was formerly in the employ OF
Calcutta merchant, q sort OF Yankee nabob, whom
he served for many years as chief bookkeeper.
But when the Atlantic cable brought the foreign
market TO his door, and the steamship superseded
the clipper, this ancient merchant, and with him
MS clerk, gave place TO younger men The trader
retired TO live at ease upon his accumulated wealth,
and the unfortunate clerk has haunted ever since
the counting rooms and warehouses where his best

rights OF use and occupation in rckety chair and

room, and enjoying also, believe, small weekly
stipend. He HAS money enough to live on with
mn my ut , sad 1n1 9, sTa6s
and commerce, and habit has chained him
so firmly to the desk, that 1t Is utterly impossi-
BILE for him to strike out q new path. Two
or three times, / was told, he formally gave
up business and established himself gentle
man Of leisure; but as bird returns to its cage
back TO the DothebOys Hall, so the superannuated
clerk was driven by the instinct within him TO re-
sumo the only life which he understands / dare
say that in his present position even the office
boy treats him with scOrn, and yet in his palmy
day he was no doubt sleek and prosperous per-
son, having under him inferior clerks, and hob
nobblng with tellers and cashiers.
WONDERED at first that so experienced and re-
spectacle man should not now be 1lling post
or some Importance. But alasi nothing Is more
common In city life than to meet with an unfOrtu-
nate who has been shunted to q side track,

cannot, for some obscure reason, get back to II,

not whit more clever, Industrious, or steady than
he, have good positions and good pay. The

Charitable people long ago realized the difficul-

and inexperienced girl engaged In business in Lon
don, as well as the fact that merely 70 provide q
room where she could spend her evenings pront-
ably and pleasantly was not graphing with the
whole difflculty. IL was not enough TO give girl
such place alone, for, unless she could be also
lodged and fed at a pr1ce within her means, she
would be under strong temptation TO exc out her
living by immortality. And thus the lodging house,
with It's tidy, clean cubicle and its bright club
room, has grown out pf the original intention Of

not thought OF; ten years ago IL was but In It's
infancy; and now there are thirty girls
